In this article, we will learn how to add border color to a button in Tkinter. In the first example, we are using the frame widget to add border color to a button in frame by highlighting the border with black color and a thickness of 2.
Example 1: Using Frame widget to add border color to a button.
Steps:
- A frame is a container for widgets. In this article, we are using frame widget parameters as highlightbackground and highlightthickness for adding border color to the button.
- Using Label widget to add text in GUI(graphical User Interface) with text font as a parameter.
- The Entry widget is used to take single-line input from the user.
- A frame with a thickness of 2 and a highlight background color as black is used for the button.
- Button widget with text as “Submit”, button background color as yellow with foreground color for text on the button is used as black in this GUI.
- Finally, a button with black border color with text as Submit is created successfully.
Below is the implementation:
Python3
import tkinter as tk root = tk.Tk()root.geometry('250x150')root.title("Button Border") # Labell = tk.Label(root, text = "Enter your Roll No. :", font = (("Times New Roman"), 15))l.pack() # Entry Widgettk.Entry(root).pack() # for space between widgetstk.Label(root, text=" ").pack() # Frame for button border with black border colorbutton_border = tk.Frame(root, highlightbackground = "black", highlightthickness = 2, bd=0)bttn = tk.Button(button_border, text = 'Submit', fg = 'black', bg = 'yellow',font = (("Times New Roman"),15))bttn.pack()button_border.pack() root.mainloop() |
Output:
Example 2: Using LabelFrame to add border color to a button.
Steps:
- A LabelFrame widget in tkinter contains the functionality of both label and a frame.
- The parameters of LabelFrame i.e., bd (border width) are taken as 6 with bg (background) color as black.
- The button widget is used for creating a button, the text parameter is used for adding text on button, and the button background color is taken as green with black color text on it.
- Finally, a button with black border color using LabelFrame widget with text as ‘Button’ on it is created successfully.
Below is the implementation:
Python3
from tkinter import * window = Tk()window.geometry('250x150')window.title('Button Widget') # Button with black borderborder = LabelFrame(window, bd = 6, bg = "black")border.pack(pady = 10) btn = Button(border, text="Button", width = 8, bg = "#6CD300", fg = "black")btn.pack() window.mainloop() |
Output:
